Solution
In ΔPQR
∠R = 40°, ∠Q = 50°
∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180° ...[Sum of all the angels in aa triangle = 180°]
⇒ ∠P + 50° + 40° = 180°
⇒ ∠P + 90° = 180°
⇒ ∠P = 180° - 90°
⇒ ∠P = 90°
In ΔABC and ΔPQR
∠A = ∠P
∠C = ∠R
BC = QR


By Angle-Angle-Side criterion of congruency, the triangles
ΔABC and ΔPQR are congruent to each other.
∴ ΔABC ≅ ΔPQR
